He has had a terrible season but this still causes problems for us. I assume VR moves to LT and Watman returns to RG, with Sackey or Campbll now dressing as backup with Smith.

Well this just keeps getting better and better.

Bourke had injury issues in camp. Wonder how much that affected his performance.

I'm guessing... that Wayne Smith starts at LT and everyone else keeps their spots? A short week seems like a poor time to shuffle the OL deck.

I speculate that International OL Devonte Wallace comes off the PR and starts in Bourkess spot. Perhaps Greenwood or Miles return to start at MLB to balance the ratio.

I believe he has been playing hurt all season.

It seems like since our 4-2 start almost everything has gone wrong.

I was trying to recall and I think it was his finger that got dislocated. Might not sound like a big thing, but O Linemen use their hands so much in pass blocking. Probably was aggravating it every game. On the six game. Hope he's not out that long.
I guess Van Roten gets the first crack replacing Bourke. I thought they might slide Holmes over from LG.

Bourke's finger dislocation was in the Jul 31 game - I don't think that's the issue.

Holmes hasn't played tackle as a pro, or in the last 6 years, so he's probably just an emergency tackle at this point.

Ah - thanks. Well, if he has a "trick finger" that keeps popping out (ew) I guess that could be uncomfortable. But for a pro tackle I still think it must be something more substantial.
